Exploring Music Therapy with Chinese Exchange Students

An Unforgettable Music Therapy Session

We recently had the pleasure of hosting a fascinating music therapy session for Chinese exchange students in Cambridge! 🌍🎶 Guided by the qualified music therapist Cloris, the session was filled with a variety of engaging and innovative activities that explored the therapeutic applications of music.

Interactive and Exciting Activities

One of the highlights of the session was the activity where we used contrasting sounds to guide a blindfolded person across a sea of obstacles. This not only fostered trust and cooperation among the students but also highlighted the powerful role that sound can play in communication and navigation. Another thrilling part of the session was the group musical improvisations. Students got to express themselves creatively, bonding over spontaneous music-making and exploring different instruments. 🥁🪇

Art Meets Music

We also dived into the world of visual art by drawing our emotional responses to a pre-selected piece of music. After collectively choosing a piece, students used colors, shapes, and lines to represent their feelings, creating a beautiful blend of music and art. This activity allowed everyone to explore how music can evoke a wide range of emotions, making it a memorable and insightful experience.

A Thank You to Our Participants

To all the Chinese exchange students who participated: We hope you enjoyed the session as much as we did! Your enthusiasm and creativity made it an unforgettable event. We also hope you had a wonderful time visiting Cambridge! 🇨🇳🇬🇧
